Pedestrian at Best

I love you, I hate you, I'm on the fence, it all depends

Whether I'm up or down, I'm on the mend, transcending all reality

I like you, despise you, admire you

What are we gonna do when everything all falls through?

I must confess, I've made a mess of what should be a small success

But I digress, at least I've tried my very best, I guess

This, that, the other, why even bother?

It won't be with me on my deathbed, but I'll still be in your headPut me on a pedestal and I'll only disappoint you

Tell me I'm exceptional, I promise to exploit you

Give me all your money, and I'll make some origami, honey

I think you're a joke, but I don't find you very funnyMy internal monologue is saturated analog

It's scratched and drifting, I've become attached to the idea

It's all a shifting dream, bittersweet philosophy

I've got no idea how I even got here

I'm resentful, I'm having an existential time crisis

Want bliss, daylight savings won't fix this mess

Under-worked and over-sexed, I must express my disinterest

The rats are back inside my head, what would Freud have said?Put me on a pedestal and I'll only disappoint you

Tell me I'm exceptional, I promise to exploit you

Give me all your money, and I'll make some origami, honey

I think you're a joke, but I don't find you very funnyI wanna wash out my head with turpentine, cyanide

I dislike this internal diatribe when I try to catch your eye

I hate seeing you cry in the kitchen

I don't know why it affects me like this

When you're not even mine to consider

Erroneous, harmonious, I'm hardly sanctimonious

Dirty clothes, I suppose we all outgrow ourselves

I'm a fake, I'm a phoney, I'm awake, I'm alone

I'm homely, I'm a ScorpioPut me on a pedestal and I'll only disappoint you

Tell me I'm exceptional, I promise to exploit you

Give me all your money, and I'll make some origami, honey

I think you're a joke, but I don't find you very funnyPut me on a pedestal and I'll only disappoint you

Tell me I'm exceptional, I promise to exploit you

Give me all your money, and I'll make some origami, honey

I think you're a joke, but I don't find you very funny
